Bring Sims 2 Nostalgia to Sims 4

Adding sims 2 music, some new and fun cutscenes, the absolute chaos of sims back into the sims 4. Sims 4 is so tame and almost boring, watching sims has become so stale. Sims 2 was hilarious and trying to manage their social life was chaotic. I’m ready for Sims 4 to be more.

  • Someone recently suggested adding Urbz content to the Sims 4 and I'd also like to see some Sims 2 nostalgia added. From both Sims 2 and Sims 2 Pets I'd like to see a few things return like the surfing machine and more pet items. But the one thing I don't miss from Sims 2 is the inability to progress without loads of strong relationships and having difficulty making friendships stick, that drove me up the wall! I remember one point where my Sim had to befriend a couple of Sims that absolutely hated her! 

  • I made a suggestion a couple days ago with the same idea except for the Sims 1. I think it would be a great oppurtunities to add aspects of these games such as furniture or the random things that can happen as expansion packs/ game packs. I 100% agree with you with the Sims 2 as well.

  • I’d love to see more facial expressions in sims 4! I know there’s a mod but a genie. How about the ability to put your own plots of land down, I miss that one so much! Carpools would be amazing to have again. My sim sometimes takes the most random, long route to get to university and then is so late or misses it completely. Another thing that I didn’t realize I actually missed is zodiac signs. I feel like it gave them so much more personality.

    I remember needing friends to get promotions that was super frustrating. I usually just cheated them. I do wish pets could be playable! Trying to get horses to train by themselves is annoying. I’d love to see more pet collars. Even agility competitions for the dogs would be super cool! 

  • I want back the Myshuno bingo game that kept the party going, the surf machine from the Sims 2 console, dog houses and better pet beds, Always cars from the Sims 2, the hacky sack even though they were obsessed with it lol. Sims 2 Bon Voyage was one of my favorites like the vacations were everything. The Celebration pack especially the weddings OMG I miss those. The Shopping not the clothing but actual making a mall and walking into different stores. Actual hair salons. 

    Sims 3 I loved the burger places watching the games at the stadium, getting invited to parties and going to that person house at the party. My favorite will be Sims 3 University because it actually felt like a university but I also liked the Sims 2 sorority and frats. If we ever get another Sims game like a Sims 5 make the uni like Sims 4 how we pick our classes like we need 12 to graduate, but make it Sims 3 classes where we can actually interact and have Sims 2 sorority and frats pledge but also have the schools rivalry like Sims 4.
